Story
In the United States, teenagers can focus on one task for only sixty-five seconds at a time, and office workers average only three minutes. Like so many of us, Johann Hari was finding that constantly switching from device to device and tab to tab was a diminishing and depressing way to live. He tried all sorts of self-help solutions—even abandoning his phone for three months—but nothing seemed to work. So Hari went on an epic journey across the world to interview the leading experts on human attention—and he discovered that everything we think we know about this crisis is wrong.

Story
The latest groundbreaking tome from Tim Ferriss, the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek. For the last two years, I've interviewed more than 200 world-class performers for my podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it’s the first time they’ve agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview.

Story
Being stressed has become a regular part of life. And while a certain amount of stress can sometimes be beneficial, our well-being is diminished when it becomes excessive or prolonged. Stress is not a virtue nor a badge of honor. You can be powerful and at ease. You can be productive and relaxed. Breathe Through Stress allows you to find a way to invite balance and welcome steadiness.

Start this about halfway through!
Narrator is abrupt, sounds bored and is too loud at the beginning... She gets better. It's almost as if she's going through the mediation herself and gets more relaxed and soothed (and quiets) as she goes! Personally not a fan of the ambient crystal bowls in this particular recording. They sound like distant fog horns.

Great way to fall asleep
I highly recommend this audio to anyone who has a difficult time falling asleep. My favorite part is the 2 minutes to think about your concerns. It’s amazing how many concerts you can think about in only 2minutes! Try it!

Slow it down
This is a good meditation but the narrator’s voice starts off super choppy so it’s not soothing. I slowed it down to .8 and .9 and it improves her abrupt manner of closing her sentences

Puts me out every time
I downloaded this about this time last year. I've listened to it about 20 times easy when I am having a particularly hard time falling asleep. My daughter loves it as well, so who knows how much it has gotten played in the last year.
Her voice slowly gets softer and more spaced out as it goes. You only realized you're falling asleep when she speaks again and you kinda shoot awake for a second before being done in.
Enjoy.

Sound editing issues
I’ve been listening to this meditation to help relax before bed, and I have mostly enjoyed it. However, there are a few times during the meditation where the volume changes *drastically* from one phrase to the next. The sudden changes in volume can take me right out of my relaxed state, as I try to concentrate on the suddenly very quiet speaking voice.
